Thunderstorms are in the forecast across parts of the central United States as a summer-like pattern continues to deliver hot temperatures and scattered severe weather.

A round of thunderstorms is expected to move through portions of SE Minn. and NE Iowa this afternoon and evening.

Most of the day will be dry for the Baltimore area with a few showers possible by the late afternoon and storms by the evening.

A complex of storms to our west should weaken as it heads in our direction. We could still see some showers and weak storms, especially across our western counties. Additional spotty thunderstorm development will be possible later today and this evening but there should be plenty of dry time.
